IMPORTANT DECISION
Rendered by the Secretary Of the
Interior.

Interior.
The Secretary OF the Interior today
rendered decision In the Fort Boise,
Idaho, military reservation case, which
Is important as involving the question
Of the right OF the President to put in
reservation public lands not author.
lied by &C! Of Congress. The case,
briefly stated, is as follows:
On April 9, 1873, the PRECEDENT
made q reservation OF $40 acres OF
Fort Boite, Idaho. Ai,erward, on
September Is, 1874, he put In reser-
vation 6s7 acrbs adjoining, for the pur-
posee Of said fort. 90 April 10, 1884,
the military authorities transferred
tbs latter reservation 10 the control OF
the Secretary OF the Interior for dis
posal. In 1886 certain settlers went on
the after tract, and applied to take II
mp under the homestead law. The
Oommiseionpr OF the General Lind
Office rejected their claims,
on the grounds that the
land was held in reser-
vstion. Secretary Lsmar, in his de.
cision, reverses that decision and
awards the ard 10 the settlers. The
decision Ia based on the act OF Feb
Iuary IL, 1853, which limits the
amount that may be reserved for the
purpose OF a fort 10 $40 acres. The
Secretary holds that the President had
no authority 10 pu, in reservation an
amount greater than that fixed by
Congress and that the ercess over that
amount 10 subject TO disposal under
the general land laws notwiihstand.
ipg the order declaring the reservation.

WASHINGTON, July 10. W. Sage,
a dealer in doors, sash and blinds, in
Rome, N. Y, complains patheticslly
to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion that he is being ruined in his old
age by the high freight rates charged
to Boeton and Boston points since The
interstate low went into effect. The

the Commission cannot do something
TO save him from financial ruin.
Nelson i. Derby and W. N. Hol-
brook, Of Pembins county, Oak, who
recently made complaint to the
Commission against the st. Paul, Min.
nespolis and Manitoba Railroad Com
psny, in respect to which hearing
has been ordered, have cent to the
Commission a long document, srgu-
mentstive in form, to be considered as
evidence at the hearing.
Its purport Is that the road refused
cars upon various pretexts for the
timely transportation Of Dakota
wheat. The true reason for the reiu-
sal, II is avsred, will be found to bear
some connection with the recent
wheat spsCulations in Chicago, the
country wheat being kopt back until
its delivery could be made servicesble
to the spectators, which course Of
procedure proved ruinous to the
farmers. They have been informed
that II the railroad object to the dotu.
ment, aB 1t doubtless will, II will not
be admissible az evidence and have
been instructed in the proper way Of
taking evidence for submission TO the
Commission and thus saving the ex.
pense OF attendance with witnesses,
which expense complainants say they
are unable TO bear.

are those for his vieit to Clinton, N.

Perry county, this State, confined in

this State. The application to the
Governor WAS signed by the
county judge, every county Off
Ger, n former State Senator,
Representatives, the jnrors who tried
the case and about 1000 citizens OF Yell
county. This Is a case Of peculiar in
terest. McGee is member of one of
the best families OF Perry county, and
has always been a quiet, ,peaceibls, law
abiding citizen. He was not, however,
up to the average intellect, was timid
and easily frightened. His victim,
Brooks, had but recently come into
the country, rented farm from Nc.
Gee, and soon established the reputa-
ton OF being very dangerous
individual. Ho boastsd of the
men he had murdered in Texas,
and took advantage OF his intimacy to
beat MCGhee Out Of his homestead
entry and sought divers opportunities
OF bullying aud intimidatirg McGhee,
The two men met Unexpectedly In the
road one day In the latter part OF 1889.

historic time. The series begins with
the Clipped stone implemen,s of
the creatures who, during PER
haps sixty or seventy CEN
turies, roamed over all that
portion of the continent then
above water aud not covere'
with ice. The jaw bone OF these
people lack the fix ures, 30 TO speak,
to which in modern humanity the
tongue muscles are attached, and this
leads to the presumption that they
did not poesese the power OF speech
However, that may be, the shape Of
their skull indicates that they could
have had nothing OF interest or i'm.
portsnce TO cay.
The dawn OF the glacial period drove
them to caves, where, durirg d resi-.
dence OF some centuries, they Ia.
vented clothes. This is proved by tie
existence in great numbers Of stone
scrlpers used in preparing the hides
Of their qusdrupedsl cotemporaries,
From cnipped stone they have ad-
vanced to ground or polished stone
and thence to implements of bone.
Now came the dawn Of art, and their
finest bone implements we're engraved
with representations Of the horse,
reindeer and bear. The collections OF
pottery and bronze OF much later are
curious ard extensive. OF bronze there
are bsrbed fish hooks, exactly like
those Of today, tongue pins with
globular heads as large as walnuts, the
very counterpsrts Of the implements
used by modern ladies to keep the
hat In place; aud fually there are
safety pins used by Etruscsn matrons
long before the advent Of Romulus
and Remus, which contain in the
gcrm every principle Of that mcsl
ue6ful article known TO the modern
nurery.
